Activating Avast Premier with an activation code

When you purchase Avast Premier, an order confirmation email containing your activation code is sent to the email address you provide during the purchase. Before following the activation steps in this article, ensure Avast Premier is installed on your PC:

Right-click the Avast icon in your system tray and select Subscription information.

At the top of the Subscription screen, click Insert activation code.

Type or paste the previously copied activation code into the box and click Activate.

After the activation code is accepted, the text Your products were activated appears. Information about your subscription such as the expiry date and number of days remaining is also visible in the Antivirus section.

You can activate your subscription on the number of PCs you specify when you make the purchase. For example, if you purchase a subscription for three PCs, you can use the one activation code to activate Avast Premier on three PCs. The number of PCs your subscription is valid for is specified in your order confirmation email.

If you need to transfer your subscription to a different PC, uninstall Avast Antivirus from your PC before you activate your subscription on the alternative PC.
